A blunder by the Iberian goalkeeper allowed the Brazilians to quickly take the lead with an own goal (6e). Then Gabi Portilho, the executioner of the Blues in the quarter (45e+4), Adriana (72e) and Kerolin (90e+1) worsened the score. When Paralluelo saved the Spanish honor (90e+12) after a csc this time favorable (85e).

In the final, in four days, Brazil will try to win its first Olympic women’s title against the United States, who beat Germany earlier in the day (1-0). The Americans have won gold in the Olympic football tournament four times, including the first edition in Atlanta (1996, 2004, 2008, 2012).
